We stand in strong support of the Supreme Court reviewing this case. For too long, responsible medical cannabis patients have been forced to choose between their health and their constitutional rights.

Here in Colorado and across 38 states, patients use medical cannabis legally to manage chronic pain, PTSD, or disabilities — yet under outdated federal law, they’re labeled as ‘unlawful drug users’ and denied their Second Amendment rights. That’s not justice, that’s discrimination.

This hearing is about more than cannabis. It’s about fairness, safety, and recognizing that people who follow state law and medical advice shouldn’t lose fundamental freedoms. Federal policy needs to catch up with science, with compassion, and with the will of the American people. Federal law still treats cancer survivors and veterans as ‘drug users’ simply because their doctors recommended cannabis — that’s outdated and unfair. 80 % of Americans believe federal cannabis law should align with state law with 2/3rds of voters saying medical cannabis patients should retain firearm rights as any other law-abiding citizen.

It’s time to modernize our laws so patients in legal medical ma*****na 38 states aren’t punished for their medicine — and so rights are protected equally for all “Patients shouldn’t have to choose between their medicine cabinet and their gun cabinet. The Supreme Court now has a chance to restore constitutional rights for millions of responsible, law-abiding Americans.”
Ashley Weber, Executive Director of Colorado NORML

"El Paso County District Judge Hilary Gurney on Monday placed an injunction on the city, prohibiting it from referring a measure to the April 1 ballot. If passed, that measure would effectively reverse the voters’ will on Ballot Question 300, which allows medical ma*****na stores in Colorado Springs to start selling recreational pot."

Tom Scudder, president of the Colorado Springs Cannabis Association, told The Denver Post Tuesday that the industry is “delighted” by the ruling.
